Marc Bloch, historien et résistant juif, entrera au Panthéon le 23 juin
La date du 16 juin avait été dans un premier temps pressentie pour son entrée au Panthéon, mais la cérémonie a dû être décalée de quelques jours en raison du G7 à Evian-les-Bains.

Irrevocably and permanently damaging the civil rights of dozens of ICE guys by playing the Butthole Surfers' 1988 album "Hairway To Steven" from a boombox outside the Hilton Garden Inn in suburban Minneapolis where they're all staying. JD Vance does a tweet about it that starts "Wow. Really?"
